Welcome 

Hello and welcome to the Urulme' Blog Center on Blogspot.

My name is Ken "S3" Sweeney, the creator of the Urulme' story-line, designer for the prospective game, and artistic creator of the Urulme' universe in general.

"What does the 'S3' stand for?" you might ask.

While serving in Iraq as a security specialist, I was assigned to the S2 department of an Army Aviation unit. The S2 section is the security section. Given the nature of my job, I held a Top Secret clearance. One of the S3 section's Sergeants nicknamed me Secret Squirrel Sweeney; or S(3).

I joined the US Army in 1996, with the Alabama National Guard. In September of 1997, I transferred to Active component where I served a 3-year tour as an MP in Washington State. I left active duty in the summer of 2000, and shortly there after re-enlisted into the Reserves as an Intelligence Analyst. After leaving the Army all together in 2006, I divided my attention on going back to school and creating my game.

At first, I was studying game design, and after moving from Alabama to Kentucky, I couldn't find a school nearby that taught game design, so I changed my major to Information Technology with a focus on Software Engineering and Networking.

My goal was to learn as much as I could in Game Design and begin working on the design of the game I created while in Iraq. However, "the best-laid schemes of mice and men often go awry" (To A Mouse, 1786).

After working on the game's design for 8 years, I was scheming a plan to get the word out and build a fan-base before the game could even be created. Thus, the creation of the Urulme' Novel Series.

Launching the first book in 2015, and the second in 2016, I had no money for advertisement, cover art, or professional editing. So, I did most of the work myself. With a few friends and family, I had successfully launched both books, but sold only 1 copy or each. The rest of the sales were e-books.

Though I was successful at publishing the books, I was unsuccessful at selling them. I wasn't happy with how the books turned out to begin with, so I decided to do a full rewrite and edit on the books and finish book 3 on my own. I'll let you know how that goes once the work is completed.

Until then, feel free to checkout the blog articles. They will encompass various aspects of the story-board; such as characters and character creation, backgrounds, notable planets and star systems, races and factions, etc.

I do warn, there will be some mild spoilers, but most movie trailers these days practically tell you the whole story of the movie in 30 seconds, and book blurbs tell you the story in a paragraph, so no worries.

Be sure to follow the blog for updates and release information. I will announce them in blog articles as they come out.

Until then, happy reading.
